B3: Shared Services & Changes In Accommodation Needs
Running time: 13:40 - 14:55
The business case for shared services in the public sector is compelling, not simply to achieve greater efficiency but rather how best to deliver public services. Whilst the attention has largely been around the processes to deliver economies of scale & scope, for example in the remodeling of front & back office systems; for property there is a greater prize. Not just a new one stop shop or implementation of new ways of working but Service Transformation through Strategic Asset Management. Shared services provide the opportunity for strategic thinking & for the property professional to grasp Sir David Varney’s Better Service…Better Deal challenge.
